There are rockstars.... and there are rock gods. The Philippines has got a lot to thank for because the industry is flourishing. That was the thing these guys chose to talk about a few days ago. All for the love of rock! Mind you they just started talking about it after the first question was thrown in. Check out these photos and see if you know some of them! =)
Chito Miranda of Parokya Ni Edgar! He says how can the music industry die if we've got our band playing a lot of gigs these days. We've got our own set of followers and if you know how much they adore us, that statement about the music industry dying is just not true!
Kamikazee frontman Jay Contreras agrees. Then laughs it off with PNE vocalist Chito Miranda. The question and answer portion just became hilarious!
Good looking Rico Blanco. He's so happy to sit beside his rock buddies and about this awesome opportunity to work with them.
Urbandub's Gabby Alipe is also going to be there. Isn't that great?!
Tanduay, the Philippines' number 1 rum knows that in this day and age people need to start paying attention to the talents that we have in the country. They are launching the biggest and grandest series of concerts in Luzon, Vizayas and Mindanao as part of the Tanduay Rhum Rockfest Year 6. They have been doing it a few years already and the thing is, the best bands, rock gods and personalities this country have will perform with their compatriots to celebrate another year of Philippine Rock Music! Tanduay knows their market starts with the new generation, the young professionals who enjoy having a couple of rounds of their product. If you go out at night, enjoy mixed drinks, chances are one of the main ingredients of each glass you take probably has Tanduay Rhum!
One of the inspirations of why I went into bands a few years back is this guy right here. When I see him perform, its just goosebumps! Wolfgang and its front man Basti Artadi is here!
Good friend Calde Calderon of Chicosci was there. It was so nice to meet him, do you remember the time I interviewed him
here? =) It's cool and good looking people like him that make me believe music can transcend genres and stereotypes. Just look at Chicosci's music and you know what I mean!
I had so much fun listening to their candid answers, the host from channel 4 did a pretty good job hosting.
Rap superstar Gloc 9 thought he was the odd man but imagine how he became the only rapper who will perform with these rock artists. I was excited to see him perform that afternoon!
Ebe Dancel will also be there among the tons of bands that will perform for the 6th installment of Tanduay Rhum Rockfest!
Gloc 9 performed Hari ng Tondo where Denise his protege was part of. It was awesome!
If that wasn't crazy enough I had goosebumps listening to them play Sirena with Ebe Dancel! It was awesome I tell you!
Three BIG Concerts in Three different regions, this is the Tanduay Rhum Rockfest Year 6 paying homage to OPM and artists of this country! If you don't watch, you'll surely regret it!
Artists, producers, people from Tanduay signed on this commitment wall in support of Original Filipino Music!
